A memory of a life time

Sorry for being a posting whore today.... I've posted a lot of photos. But I'm working hard at learning and improving my shooting and editing skills. Is this over the top? This is from a motorcycle camping trip I took in June. It was spectacular riding and the scenery was epic. It was up in the Sierras. Thanks!!

Great shot. :judge: :judge:

You will not be judged as a photographer by the pictures you take, but by the pictures you show.

Well, number 1 you are not a posting whore. Number 2 why do you think that is over the top.

I really like it! :judge: :judge: :judge:

I have a tendancy to over-saturate in post processing. I'm learning to take it down a notch once I think it's 'there'. Lightroom has been fantastic for me so far. Thank you for the feedback.

Great job on this. I tend to overcook some of my shots too. Is it my fault the worlds colors are sometimes dull? The practice you gain from PP for criticism here is very valuable. Keep it up - make the other whores jealous! :rofl:

I like the shot. To *me* the red is a tad over saturated, but not bad. Otherwise it's a great shot. If it means something to you, then it's worthy of your efforts.

I would run the Gamma slightly higher, but not a lot higher. Otherwise, there is always room for tinkering with brushes for blur and tones. But that may be more Photoshop's territory than LR.

Quite simply I like overcooking, strong colors always pop so much more, great shot. :judge: :judge:
